Our paper on how to quickly generate exact solutions to resonant differential equations is now out in SIAM Review!
Check it out here: doi.org/10.1137/21M1395922

Diffusion is a statistical consequence of random motion. What happens when random motion is *chiral*, e.g. preferring left turns over right turns? In a new paper we show how a non-dissipative "odd diffusivity" emerges, including in chiral active matter. arxiv.org/abs/2103.09958

We have a fantastic set of 2021 intern projects listed on our website: nersc.gov/research-and-devel… -- if you are a (grad) student and you're interested in learning about the exiting world of #HPC (or just want to work with a fantastic team), I encourage you to apply. #gradschool

"When someone tells you that science is saying XYZ, you should always ask “How do people know that XYZ is true?” And as an answer, you cannot just be repeating their arguments: you must think for yourself." @lemire lemire.me/blog/2020/07/12/sc…

I do not understand why we tolerate that scientists be allowed to keep their data and software to themselves, and yet publish the results in fields such as medicine or health.
The authors of @TheLancet hydroxychloroquine paper from last wk published a correction addressing many of the issues raised. Their data changed very little and conclusions remain on higher death rate xitter.cf/TheLancet/status/12663… They also need to release the dataset for all to analyze

Just uploaded a video on the Laplacian: youtube.com/watch?v=oEq9ROl9…
If you've heard of the Laplacian and always wondered what it was, or feel like you don't have great intuition for what it means, take a look—we explore how the Laplacian shows up in geometry, physics, & computation.

Eric Betzig, a biophysicist at @UCBerkeley whose work in microscopy garnered him a 2014 @NobelPrize in Chemistry, suggests that the new understanding of the cell foretells a looming shift in outlook as dramatic as that from Newton to Einstein.

A maths meme that is actually funny rather than stupid:
Solve carefully!
230 - 220 x 0.5 =
You probably won’t believe it but the answer is 5!

Opinion: I really dislike the proposed new “conference posters”. From a #SciComm view, I think it’s ineffective. From a graphic design perspective, it’s incredibly ugly. Posters are supposed to be conversation starters, nothing to talk about when there’s nothing on the poster.

Palpatine survived the plunge into the core of the second Death Star and lived in its' ruins on Endor for 30 years eating insta-bread. That was Vader flying that TIE fighter Rey cuts in half! EVERYONE who is dead is back to FIGHT! I can't wait for Star Wars to finally end!
